« Two cool games to distract you | Main | A wee bit of drama »

Because Friday isn't a weekday...

... according to Cazz. So here's another game for you! I've not tried it, but C looked absolutely enthralled by it and emailed it to me, so it must be good(!)

In other news, I was rather freaked out this morning to receive something from my old university in the post. While this isn't really a very interesting fact at all, I haven't heard from them for about 10 years or something, and have moved house many times since then, so how the hell did they find me?! It was an invitation to some kind of "postgrad/professional" cheese and wine sort of thing, and I have no idea what they want from me or why they want me there. Anyway, I have no intention of going, and that's final. I just want to know how they know where I live!? Maybe it's cos I'm now on a postgraduate course - at a completely different university - or something like that. I am not impressed!

Weird.

But not as weird as the other thing that someone showed me this week (thanks, S!). I'm not going to go into details but basically I am listed on an online Deaf database which has completely wrong information about me, based on an old magazine interview about my social life in 1995(!) As I can't make the database people take it off, I am now emailing with them to get them to at least change it to something that is true. However, this annoys me too because I don't want to be in someone's stupid database anyway, especially when I don't know about it! Agh!

Sometimes I feel like this world is soooooooo like Big Brother. At least I work from home so I don't get clocked on CCTV 5 million times a day like everyone else. A bleak thought.

And finally, here's a message for OPD: Harry eats very nice dog food and we are quite sure it is fine, BUT we cannot stop him eating all sorts of crap when we go for a walk. He used to be a stray, bless him, and had to fend for himself when he was a wee puppy. We've tried everything but cannot get him to stop, short of sellotaping his mouth shut, poor dog. So, when he farts, it is beyond our control!

So now you know.

Have a happy weekend, all!

Err, actually I believe you have the legal right to have them remove the information about yourself from the database - they don't have the right to hold it. I'll suggest looking up the Data Protection Act which comes in play here.

Cheers

Agree! Think it needs to be removed altogether, you've come a long way babes!

On a completely separate note, this game you've *advertised* on your blog is so bloody ADDICTIVE, I have not done any work this afternoon. Where do I send the invoice for lost hours to?

E,

I agree with you, though I did it for half an hour before getting stuck on Level 21! If I went past that, think I would have been on it for a lot longer!
